“Translation dictionaries, for example, suggest that the English word love can be equated with the Turkish word sevgi and the Hungarian word szerelem. But does this mean that the concept of “love” is the same in English, Turkish, and Hungarian?”

It was so nice to end the year with a little celebration of our book together with other authors (former members of my team) who came to Genova for a little symposium and get-together. And this allowed former members to meet with present members of the @S4HRI_iit team 😊

@TugceNPekcetin @IITalk I enjoyed it a lot and already looking forward to the next time(s) 🩷 Arrivederci!

We finally met in person w/ @TugceNPekcetin 🤍 Two #HRI researchers inevitably crossing paths at the Italian Institute of Technology—where else? 🤖

#Humanoids2024 begins tomorrow, and we’re excited to be part of it! Drop by our booth where we will showcase our ongoing clinical activities, including RONIN project, which focuses on robot-assisted training for adolescents with developmental disabilities

My paper proposing that we develop self-representation in a series of discontinuous developmental steps, based on ideas from Bayes and Susan Carey is out in Front in Hum Nsci
"How to grow a self: development of self-representation in the Bayesian brain"

Really cool study on human-robot emotional interactions.
“Human Perception of the Emotional Expressions of Humanoid Robot Body Movements: Evidence from Survey and Eye-Tracking Measurements”

Fascinating insights into how much we value control, even when increased autonomy could improve performance! Happy to have contributed to this study

1/ Our new paper in which we looked at subjective and objective performance when teleoperating a semi-autonomous robot. Together with @ilkayari Davide De Tommaso & @A_Wykowska ieeexplore.ieee.org/abstract/docum…

@ilkayari Very interesting. Girard makes study of Kafka's "The Hunger Artist" to draw inferences about the "competitive" nature of self-induced food deprivation.

Similarly, AN patients’ body awareness improved when watching others’ faces over their own:

Like Girard’s mimetic theory, a reduced sense of self paired with heightened response to other “bodies” might sustain anorexia in a loop of imitation and rivalry
Tim Howles@AimeTim
1. In one interesting, controversial and yet little-known essay, René Girard applies his theory to an understanding of the phenomenon of eating disorders: ‘Anorexia and Mimetic Desire’ (2013, from a 1996 lecture). A thread.

On the topic of self, this appeared today as well. Leaving it here for anyone interested

Two of my fav topics, sense of self and robotics, together in a paper 😍

🚀 NEW PAPER OUT on @SciRobotics! How can robotics deepen our understanding of the sense of self? The review paper explores how robotics can advance our understanding of selfhood by constructing embodied models and using robots as experimental tools. science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

Very proud to share our newest off-the press paper published in Science Robotics, where we argue that robots can help us understand the sense of self 🙂

@LeahBanellis Yes, definitely. The problem is that these practices are sometimes portrayed as one-size-fits-all “solutions” which can overlook individual differences
English
@ilkayari Thank you for the kind words! I think it can indeed, but it depends on the individual and the type of meditation/intervention - some types may still be helpful
English
Amazing study! On a related note, findings on the link between body-wandering and negative thoughts made me think (and convinced) that mindfulness meditation focused on bodily sensations might do more harm than good for those with anxiety.
Leah Banellis@LeahBanellis
What happens when our stream of consciousness turns inward, towards the body? Our new fMRI study of 536 individuals finds that 'body-wandering' is associated with distinct patterns of brain connectivity, physiology, affect, and mental health: biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

@ilkayari yes, it's such a bizarre yet influential story. I wrote a whole book just around this archetypal theme (coming out next year)
English
@ninabegus Glad to! Also, I must add that I think the Pygmalion myth motif adds a really compelling layer to the study
